Peter,
you are totally right, if you think you can’t you can’t.

is this the best thing to do, well that is hard to say as everyones circumstances are different. Have you made a savings, if the answer is yes then it would seem you are in a better position.

Just am purchasing another cash flow positive deal, they are still out there. This is a six bedroom house, three bathrooms cost is $250,000 rental return will be approximately $800 per week so a pretty good deal.

My two second rule is take away the three zeros at the end, double the amount and that is the rent the property should be earning to be cash flow positive, it works and is faster than the 11 second rule.
By the way there are still cash flow properties out there.
